The TRUE Clarification on the Trinity Doctrine is
by gubberningbody inthere is no agreed-upon coherent authoritative definition on which all who adhere to the label agree.. .
it's that simple.. .
it's also true that those who feel any of this is important are missing the bigger issues of why any diety would create anything and if it would why it would have seized upon making this particular incarnation a possibility..

Is it really necessary to have all these splinter foreign language groups?
by gubberningbody inin countries with basically a homogenous-language speaking group?
it strikes me as more devisive than uniting.
more like "separate, but equal".

Reading a letter of disassociation by a Mormon sounds a lot like the experiences of JW's
by gubberningbody inhttp://www.exmormon.org/whylft125.htm.
...jw's who've been diligent, sincere and finally realizing that they've been misled from the beginning, by others who are as the scriptures say "misleading and being misled" 2 ti.

I don't generally buy into conspiracy theories because my experience
by gubberningbody inhas told me two things which militate against the same:.
1. people aren't that smart.. 2. people can't keep secrets.. .
p.s.. i suspect the psychology of those who do believe in these is partly affected by their experience of dealing with people consistently smarter than themselves coupled with a greater need for drama..

Ok, fess up, how many of you dirt-bags were into that sleazy network-marketing crap?
by gubberningbody inseems to me that you could go to any one of those meetings and find a jw.. oh and weren't there alway those theocratic urban legends about some family somewhere who bought into said ponzi scam and they all quit their jobs and are pioneering now that they've gotten into it?.

Should Martin Luther have refrained from posting his 95 theses and "waited on Jehovah?"
by gubberningbody inwhere would any "reformation" come from or any "great awakening" without dissent?.
was he wrong to act in harmony with his conscience?.
do we view him and every reformer since jesus christ as simply "impatient, faithless people who refused to 'wait on jehovah?".

I was on the PVG and it was an eye opener
by gubberningbody inyou get involved.
you go to seminars, study up on blood, the history of transfusion medicine, medical ethics, legal cases and the like if you're motivated like i was.
then it hits you that there is no biblical basis for distinguishing minor blood fractions, that df'ing someone on these grounds are without biblical support and that you're ashamed of the whole thing because the supposed principle of showing respect for life is actually violated by the prohibition.

Is the evil we experience in our lives just "collateral damage" in the issue of universal sovereignty?
by gubberningbody init's not as if i have questions that need resolving.
i know things would likely have been better if jehovah had been listened to.
i am also ready and willing to do what he wants me to do, however exactly what that is isn't so clear.. if we're just pawns and the world is just a chess game between jehovah and satan, then i'm not sure i can wrap my mind around the length of the match and the things that have happened during this time period.. surely we wouldn't consider it morally upright to use humans in this way to prove a point to satan and the angels?.
